The Secret of Happiness
Many centuries ago, Pericles, the great Athenian, said,
"The secret of happiness is freedom; and the secret of freedom is a brave heart."
. We realize this truth anew today as we face the changes
wrought by total war. We know that every threat to freedom
is a threat to our personal and national happiness, and because of this we gladly lay aside for the moment our liberties
and place restrictions on our freedom for the sake of a strong
defense and preservation of those liberties and of that freedom.
Happiness is the result of free choice: of the ability to
give freely and not upon the demand and according to the
\vill or whim of some self-imposed overlord. Happiness is
found;-in the freedom to live according to the laws of right
and justice: to work in a spirit of friendly intercourse with
■pur fellow men, unhampered and unhindered by prejudice
fei'gainst anyone, because of race or creed or color or class.
' Happiness rests in freedom to worship as our conscience dictates: to pray to God as a free man, at peace with one's own
soul, and to see to it that our neighbor has the same privilege. There could be no happiness, for a free born and free
spirited American under totalitarian rule.
Freedom is the absence of fear—of that corroding dread
of impending evil, that cancerous mistrust of one's " closest
comrades which is tlie deadliest weapon pf the dictators.
Freedom is the security given by peace of mind in a world in
which men are motivated by respect for the rights of others
and by a sense of their own obligations to society. Freedom
is the knowledge that success or failure depends upon one's
oym self and the way in which one's talents and abilities are
-i^iJiz^d^'-i^ijedoirvi^^t^^v.y of h*£c for.men^-\vho- are ..r-et
afraid of living.
A braV-e heart is one that has courage and faith. It has
courage to go ahead; to believe in the integrity of others; to
combat evil wherever it exists.; to fight loyally and wholeheartedly to the bitter end; to face the unknown because of
the guiding light of purpose, the hope of a finer goal. It has
faith—faith in one's self, in one's fellow men, in the God of
one's~T5elief—and in the future whether it be a future in this
world or beyond our earthly ken.
W ■ "The secret of happiness is freedom; and the secret of
freedom is a brave heart." v. " "

Men and Women
Must Enlist on
Production Line
Hoover Company Needs More l-
Workers Now; Appeals to
Elderly Men and Women
If Hoover company officials had
their wish foi Christmas come true,
they would find approximately SOO
additional workers, most of them
women and gills, applying for work
at the factory within the next few
weeks.
For that is about the numbei
who are needed to help the local
plant get under full war production and turn out materials as fast
as they are needed.
The company is appealing to
elderly men and women and to
gills and boys above IS years of
age to do their patriotic duty at
this time when their help is needed for war production. Certain restrictions placed by the war manpower commission prohibit hiring*
farm workers because they are
needed'where they arc. But women
can help fill this need, both old and
young women.
But any physically able person,
not now employed in an essential
place in industry, who realizes the
need for their help aie asked to apply for a job. There is one waiting
for them. And there is someone on
the firing line who is waiting foi
the equipment they can produce.
Eight hundred additional employees—that is what the Hoover
company needs. Eight hundred
physically able men and women
who are ready to help win the war
oil the production front.

Annual Christmas
Program at High
School Tonight
Angel Pantomime, Playlet,
Choral Music and Carols in
Community-wide Entertainment
This Wednesday evening there
will be a community program at
the North Canton high school for
every person in the village and
school district who likes to get together for Christmas entertainment
and caroling.
The program is scheduled to start
at 7:30 with a playlet in two parts,
presented by the seventh • and
eighth grade. The play, "The Boy
They Turned Away," is directed by
Miss Helen Schleppi and is the
story of. the chance a group of-
people threw away of serving tlie
Christ Child by refusing to help
those who needed help.
BULLETIN!
With Frank Burkholtz pouring 17
points through, the hoop. North
Camton handed Jackson Twp» a 50
to 27 loss Tuesday evening. North
Canton led 10-1, 25-9, and 37-22 at
the quarter'marks. Daily posted 12
points for the Bears. The Reserves
cf North Canton idso won 24-14.
On this, the second war Christmas, home circles are
broken all over this land of ours. War has touched etfuntless
fjamilies throughout our nation. We are separated from those
whom we love. We are face to face with broken homes,
changed lives. Chrstmas gaiety is far from the hearts of
many of us.
- .-But we can still keep Christmas in our hearts. Christmas
is not merely a time of personal rejoicing and good fellowship, important though that is. Christmas is the one holiday
that cannot be celebrated alone. Christmas is not getting, but
giving—not~bf mere material gifts but of ourselves.
^ * All over this world, on the battlefronts where the armies
^bf right fight'the battle of Him who taught "Thou'shalt love
thy Neighbor as thyself"; behind the battle lines, in palace
and In humble home, in crowded city and on lonely "farm;
deep 'in tlie conquered countries where every act" of worship
is watched "with, suspicious eyes, men are keeping Christmas
in thejr. heart's, praying that the Prince of Peace may rule on
earth.'.* y
- : yVn, the fortunate ones, in- this land protected by our
valiant iqrces fr6m the onslaught of the aggressor, have the
opportunity, to answer the challenge ahd to share our Christmas cKSer.with all. We who have much,to' give, must give
much tp jbrh-g" comfort to the desolate and happiness to the
sick at efiVari. We may be lonely) we may be sad, we may be
impoverished. .'But there' is none of us who "cannot give in
some way: Onljr in giving can we keep the Christmas light
burning^brigKt: Oiily in giving may we follow the Star.

Fire Damages Home
Near Township Line
Believed to Have Started
From Overheated Furnace
Fire which is believed to haw-
started from an overheated furnace
cause approximately nine hundred
dollars worth of damage to the
Joseph T. Morris home at 1123
Lakeview Terrace road near the
Plain township line last Thursday
evening.
Mr. Morris was home at the- time
of the fire and had been ill. Neighbors saw the flames and notified tht.
fire department. Using a small gai-
den hose they kept the fire back
until the firemen arrived, thus sa^. -
ing the home from greater damage.
The flames were quickly brought
under control when the depaii-
ment arrived. The loss is covei c 1
by insurance. Contents of the home-
were only slightly damaged !>;

A
p.
It may seem just a little
odd this year to be wishing
a Merrv Christmas to everyone. -For there are few homes
left untouched by the demanding grasp of wajr. There
are few homes from which
one member will not be absent on Christmas day and
there will be some homes
where the loss will be veiled"
in sorrow for that one who
will never come back".
Yet we do wish a Merry-
Christmas—we call it to our
friends and to our neighbors.
It rings out gladly and cheerily across the snowy streets
of liome.
For it is one of the ways
America is learning to carry
on. Chin up and eyes bright
—ths people of America
know that they hold closest
and safest to those treasured
days they refused to overshadow with fear. And they
know that the boy away from
home will be"' remembering
lighted windows at night,
starlight and candle shine on
Christmas eve and the laughter that rings out as merrily
as Christmas belis in thc
quietness of a snowy Christmas.
Somewhere in the hot tropical lands where so many of
them have gone they will be
lemembering the colorful
beauty of Christmas trees
they knew. And because they
are remembering these things
as the things of home, their
families will carry on in the
same familiar way. The/

About the only good things that can be said for any war,
were said last week at the National Chemical Exposition in

products; which will alter drastically the economics not only
